Candle Wick Shoppe Blog

Hello all! I hope you're having a good weekend.

I thought it would be a good idea to mention Beltane today, seeing as it's TOMORROW. I thought I'd give some insite into what it is, what kinds of magical things you can do to celebrate, etc.

So Beltane holds the spot on the wheel of the year between the spring equinox and the summer solstice, and symbolizes the waking of the earth. April showers have brought the May flowers, and now we celebrate that! Beltane is often celebrated by holding bonfires, planting flowers and trees, and is also the perfect time for Handfasting ceremonies.

So what can we do to magically for Beltane?

This is the ideal time to do magic to bring in abundance, and to celebrate unions (whether they're romantic or otherwise). 

At Candle Wick we can help through a couple of our favorite products for this time of year:

• Abundance Blessing Kit: Through this trio that includes Attraction, Prosperity and Stability candles, you can bring abundance in whatever it is you seek. This set is great for Beltane altars.
• Adam & Eve, Alice & Eve, Adam & Steve: Celebrate your union with these candles! 
• Witches Brew Original Candle: Amplify and strengthen your magic. Strengthen the spirit and enlighten the soul to energize and empower any witch's spell craft. 

I wish all of you the happiest Beltane! Thank you so much for reading. 

Hello all! The Coventry Magic Oracle for this week gave me the Adam & Eve Motor City Hoo Doo candle, The Love Affirmation candle, and the Fast Cash Wicked Witch Mojo candle, so it's looking like the next week is going to be a good one for love and prosperity!

Adam & Eve will amplify romantic feelings you and your partner have for each other; and is great for both rough patches and adding some more energy to what originally sparked the relationship.

The Love Affirmation opens us up to love of all sorts. Use this to let go of what is keeping you from letting love in.

The Fast Cash Wicked Witch Mojo candle reminds us that we can't live on love alone, but when you add money to the mix, anything is possible!

This Weeks Question: How do I want to experience love? 

Hello all! This week's reading contained Crown of Glory (Motor City Hoo Doo), Problem Solving (Blessed Herbal Candle), and Recover Lost Money (Motor City Hoo Doo)! Use Problem Solving to resolve any issues you're having in the prosperity sector of your life, then light the Crown of Glory and Recover Lost Money candles to bring in that which is owed and that which has been earned. 

This weeks question: What do I need to do to be prosperous? 

Hello all! For this week, the CMO recommends  Spiritual Cleansing, Attraction/Love and Money Draw from the Blessed Herbal line. Welcome Spring by clearing away the Winter dreariness, attract good energy, and bring on some good fortune and stability for the new season! 

Question of the Week: What are you looking forward to this spring?

Hello all! The Coventry Magic Oracle reading for this week contained the Sweet Grass World Magic Candle, Road Opener Hoo Doo candle and the Protection candle from the Blessed Herbal line.

The Sweet Grass candle is to bring about positivity, and when combined with the Road Opener candle, positive changes, and making sure there isn't any sort of block in your path. The Protection candle is to make sure any possible blocks are kept away on this upcoming journey. 

This weeks Coventry Magic Oracle reading contained Dragon's Blood, Meditation, and Heart! 

My thought for this weeks reading was to figure out what we should all do to prepare for the upcoming Mercury Retrograde on April 9th. I know, it's a ways off still, but what can I say, I like to be prepared, and retrogrades can be rough. So here's the deal:

Dragon's Blood: Awaken your inner dragon! Amplify your personal power with this Witches Brew candle. 

Meditation: This Affirmation will bring clarity and still your mind during this hectic time.

Heart: The Heart Blessed Herbal candle will calm the tentions which are sure to by high during a Retrograde. Calm arguments and bring in some understanding with this candle.

Good luck to all of you! See you next week!

Jacki Smith is one of my most important rol models. As someone who aspires to be an entreprenuer in the magical and spiritual communiity, she is a great person to watch and learn from. Her motivation and ambition is inspirational. I can feel her powerful magic before she arrives just to say "Hi!" and check on the store. She is very dedicated to her craft and business,  and that makes you feel protected, nurtured and included. I can only dream to be as successful and icredible as Jacki Smith. I would love to thank her for allowing me to be part of the Candle Wick Shoppe family and wish her a Fantastic Month of Jacki!

I didn’t know Jacki before I started working here at the Candle Wick Shoppe. Even as a customer, I was unaware of this magnificent lady.  Working with Jacki has been filled with a wealth of priceless information. I had the great opportunity to work with Jacki a bit to help set up the Mojo Bar. Her process is an amazing thing to witness!  Then she trained me in the process of assisting customers with creating a Mojo Bag or Conjure Jar for their needs was nothing short of amazing.

 Jacki is extremely empowering, uplifting, and humble.   She celebrates other's successes, which is a fantastic thing to witness. Jacki's dedication to being of service to others, assisting them in manifesting their intentions is, yet, another great example of the type of woman she is. Not only has she enhanced my conjuring and magical life, but her example of service to others through love has

deepened my desire to be of further service to others.

Thank you for being awesomely you!

I hadn’t really spent one-on- one time with Jacki, until the birth of the Mojo Bar. To familiarize me with

the process we created a Conjure Jar together. My family was going through a whirlwind of change,

emotions were running high, and as the oldest child, I was running around trying to glue everything back

together. I was feeling frustrated and energetically pulled in two opposite directions (I finally know

what my Pisces brothers feel like everyday). Jacki began to help me dissect the situation, understand

the deep-rooted cause of this explosion, and empathize with each party…and then…we made MOJO.

I learned so much about her in those 30 minutes. Jacki is a whirlwind of power, sass, wisdom, and

uplifting, healing energy. She has invested so much of her life into helping others find their magic, heal

themselves, love others and live balanced, happy lives. She has inspired me to push my own magical self

to areas I never knew I could reach…access power I thought I couldn’t handle, work on sealing wounds

that I had allowed to bleed for far too long…and I’m so much better for it. That’s what the Mojo Bar is all

about, letting you get your hands dirty  using the magic inside of you to create positive changes in

yourself and the world around you.

Burning this candle, I am immediately in the market place in Morocco. This earthy, yet spicy, aroma makes me want to reach out and touch a traditional hand-woven rug along the Moroccan streets.  Permeating and gentle, this candle will surely invigorate your senses. Perfect for burning during a bubble bath or with wine and a great book!

Celebrate the bright, flowery, fragrance of summer with our delightful Daffodil candle by Root! This beeswax blend candle is scented with an essential oil blend of bergamot, sweet melon, clove, lily and dashes of honeysuckle and vanilla. It’s available in a votive, small, and large Veriglass varieties.

I love the way this candle permeates the room, delicately, as I get wisked away to a field of daffordils.

Murray & Lanman’s Florida Water

Florida water is an incredibly universal tool for the physical world as well as the spiritual. I always like to say you can use it to cleanse your face or your sacred space. Highly effective astringent properties make it a useful aftershave and face-rinse. You may sprinkle it about your sacred area to cleanse the energy, or objects that have accumulated unwanted energy. As someone that practices healing arts in both spiritual and energetic means as well as the physical via herbal remedies and cures, this is a useful tool in my “magic bag” or my medicine chest.

This item is a must have for any healer or magical practitioner.

Good afternoon everyone!

Testing stuff. 

Ridding one's self of negative energy seems to be the theme of most of my customers magical purchases this week, and now is the perfect time to do it! Or at least that's what the CMO says. 

I did a reading for clearing, and got the following three candles that I suggest you get if you are getting rid of some nasty energy this week.

Makin' Tracks by Wicked Witch Mojo: While this is most often used to get rid of nasty neighbors or co-workers, hot-food those troublesome life issues with speed and efficiency. 

Reversing by Motor City Hoo Doo: All the drama and junk hanging around your spirit needs to go back to where it came from.

Recover Lost Money by Motor City Hoo Doo: Uncover your money leaks so you can clear them out.

Good luck to everyone kicking that negative energy out of your life! Do a reading for yourself with our online Oracle to find which candles you need.
